'The Acolyte's Manny Jacinto teases his character in the upcoming Star Wars series.
With the bevy of new Star Wars movies and television shows being announced during Star Wars Celebration, fans got the pleasure of seeing a glimpse into The Acolyte this Friday. The series is created by Leslye Headland, who is known for being a co-creator on Russian Doll and her work as a playwright. The Acolyte takes place near the end of the High Republic, a period of time set about a century before Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace.
While there is a lot that's uncertain about what we can expect with The Acolyte, what we do know is that the current cast, on top of Stenberg, Lee, and Jacinto, includes Dafne Keen , Jodie Turner-Smith , Charlie Barnett and Carrie-Anne Moss as a Jedi masters, and Joonas Suotamo as the Wookie Jedi Kel Naka.
"My extent of playing with the lightsabers is stealing [Dafne Keen’s] or Charlie [Barnett’s] lightsabers and taking selfies in the locker room. So I don’t really get to do that much. But, it’s cool watching them work and do their thing. I’m always in awe, especially with these guys getting to do that. So I think I’m jealous. I’ll talk to Leslye again, maybe do something next season."
